I wouldn't be holding my breath for a reply if his negative feedbacks are
any indication, Chuck.

I got this OM=>EOS AF confirm adapter in the mail today
<http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220748710583>

It looks nice and nicely made.  It also appears to have OM and EF flanges on
it.  Unfortunately, it does not fit any of the half dozen OM lenses I tried
to fit nor does it fit on my 5D.  The adapter's flange thicknesses appear to
be off by at least 0.002" or maybe even double that.  On can start the
adapter installation but as soon as the adapter rotates around to mating
flange surfaces on either lens or body it stops cold.

I've sent a (nice) note to the seller and am awaiting a reply.
